Honda CBR600RR reviews

When I purchased the bike the first day I had it the mirror fell off!!! Not Hondas fault though, it was the dealerships. Then the second week I had it was in the shop for a week due to a horrible rattling sound in the front end. It was that little headlight vibrating in the plastic. Now that I have gotten all of those problems ironed out I have been in heaven!!! This bike is truly a great performance machine!!! You can't go wrong. All of my friends ride 1000's and not one of them can handle through turns like this bike can. GREAT BIKE!! Show less

Ok - the comfort is not perfect but come on it's a super sport! This has got to be the definition of perfection on two wheels. Smoooooth, fast, and very flickable in the turns. Did I mention smooth? This bike is definitely hungry for speed but also takes care of you at slower speeds - just nice to know you've got a rocket in reserve if you need it. I thought about a Suzuki GSXR, Yamaha R6, and even the Kawasaki ZZR 600 class (thought the Honda was a bit expensive). You get what you pay for. If you are thinking of purchasing this bike, all I can say is - DO IT!! I've done a few modifications, strictly cosmetic as there is no need currently for performance enhancements. My wife is a little jealous knowing I've got another love interest in my life. Thanks Honda!! Show less

First bike I've owned is this one, and I am actually surprised I got off it long enough to write this review. I have nothing to compare it to but this thing rides smooth and I have no trouble keeping up with the other riders. Overall an excellent choice for a beginner, handles great, comfortable, and a head turner. Show less

I have had sport bikes and crusiers before. I wanted a change from my Honda VTX 1800 c so I went back to the Honda CBR 600 RR and what a thrill. I had it up to 145 and the bike still wanted more. Handling is the best I have encountered in a long time. My wife thinks I'm crazy since I'm 45 years old but I still love the speed... Show less

I've had mine since May. Insane bike. Great on turns. A lot of looks for sure. Very fast. 140 mph in 5th and runing at 7 grand. This bike is unlike any other 600 out. Show less

This is my first Sportbike, and I was criticized for buying a 600rr as my first. But I must say that this bike is just amazing. If you have good self control this is not a bad starter. The low-end is a bit sluggish which is to be expected, but mid and high it shines. I live for the twisties and I can easily outpace my riding buddies who are on gsx-r 750s and 1000rr's. The combination of light weight and low center of gravity makes this thing just rediculous in the corners. A lot of complaints on here for the seat, but this isn't a problem for me. I've done several 400+ mile rides with little pain. With the seating position it is easy to put too much pressure on the handlebars which makes my wrists sore..but this is just a matter of breaking the habit. I'd recommend it to anyone. Show less

Over the past years I've owned different sport bikes and this one takes the lead by far! I've always been a fan of Honda's race proven tech. and reliability. Having driven R6's and ZX-6R's I would would by far give this bike the win. With a race tuned suspension and a power curve that just doesn't give this thing will own your buddy's in the corners. I ride 45min. to work and it might not be a truly comfortable ride with the hard seat but it's worth every minute. I plan on making this my track/race bike because of the way it tears through corners and allows me to drag that knee. 5 Stars w/o a doubt. Show less

I had a Honda cruiser but when I saw the new 2007 CBR's, I had to trade in. I have always wanted a sportbike since I can remember. When I saw the white/silver CBR 600RR, I was hooked. The ride is awesome and the bike is so sexy. You just don't see them like this. Honda went all out on this one. Only draw back is the hard seat and it is hard on the wrists. Best one out there though! Show less

My 06 600RR is by far my favorite 600 class sportbike in terms of looks and performance. I have ridden Gixxer 600s, an R6, and a Ducati 749. My RR, in my opinion, handles better than these if not only to be equalled by the Ducati. It's plenty fast and I really have no problem with the seat comfort. Brakes are amazing and I think it sounds awesome stock. This is probably the most solidly built and reliable bike I know of. Show less

As my first bike I think that the 600rr is the best overall 600 in its class, although there are faster 600's, this is the best. I chose the CBR over the Kawi and R6 because I think this is a better street/track bike emphasis on street. I ride with a 1000rr and for a 600, mine is a beast. Show less
